Apple offers free repair of its products for Japanese users

Apple will help the flood affected Japanese people by undertaking free repair of iPhones, iPads, iPods, Mac computers, Apple watches and Apple's displays damaged in the torrential rains that hit the western part of the country earlier this month.

If the gadgets were impaired directly by the rain disasters and still fixable, individual users can apply for the free service, media reported on Monday.

The Cupertino, California- headquartered Tech giant plans to accept requests for free repair of its products until the end of September.

The users must be residents of municipalities being supported by the central government under the Disaster Relief Act, the report said. The offer is only for individual users, not for companies or stores using Apple devices for their businesses.
